Staying awake for life requires continual learning, challenges and experiences as well as a great compassion for all things. It requires acquiring skills for all trades and purposes. It involves knowing ourselves and asking reflective questions. It involves being whole and well. This blog is dedicated to helping myself and others live our best life and stay on our toes for the journey.

Two wolves
One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, "My son, the battle is between two wolves inside us all.
"One is Evil - It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.
"The other is Good - It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee replied, "The one you feed."
